9. Accreditation Process -Tracks Visited -Churchill Downs -Keeneland -Delaware Park -Pimlico -Belmont Park -Hollywood Park -Calder

10. Accreditation Process -Churchill Downs -Difficult Inspection because track was not open for live racing, so many of the procedures that are key to the process (e.g. pre-race inspection) were difficult or impossible to see in person. As a result, we needed to have written protocols signed off by state veterinarian. -Churchill corporate commitment to safety is apparent -Exceeded standards in many ways: Padded Starting Gate, Post Race exam protocols, Second Kimzey Ambulance

11. Accreditation Process -Keeneland -Not afraid to spend money in areas concerning safety -Polytrack -Exceeded standards in many ways: Twice daily track maintenance measurement; Padded Starting Gate; Use of InCompass Hand-held module for pre-race inspections, allowing sharing of data among regulatory veterinarians in other jurisdictions; Jockey Medical Records

17. Take-Aways -Process is working -Three out of Seven tracks created relationships with aftercare facilities as a result of this process -Delaware Lasix -Maryland Medication -Aftercare is a big issue with tracks -Many believe it is not their problem, which we found out when drafting the Code of Standards -Security Assessment well received -Tracks are learning how to improve backstretch security
